School to Work: Harness the Energy and
Expertise You Need
Save Money, Gain health
benefits, Engage Hard-to-Reach Youth
The 30% of a high school population
struggling most with literacy, the ones most likely to be
disengaged in school or at risk of dropping out, can become
empowered leaders. Generation FIT is an in-school
program that teaches students how to lead and manage an
interactive fitness game program that provides "10-15 minute
workout/play breaks throughout the school day. Once
teens have learned the physiology, research and some strong
mentoring skills they'll be prepared to be motivational GenXe3 facilitators for your
employees.
Research has shown that 10 minutes of
aerobic exercise before a cognitive task can increase success
at the task. Kinesthetic learners, on average that is 85% of
the population, will focus on their work and produce higher
quality results after regular practice doing the interactive
video game. You have many of the same challenges with
employees that teachers have with students - we are, afterall,
from the same human mold. Interactive game breaks provide:
exercise, fitness training and wellness
awareness eye-tracking, patterning and analysis
skills important to reading, computer work and other cognitive
tasks communication, teamwork, time management and
workplace skills
The same students that could one day
drive enormous costs for the community can become valuable
community partners. They can facilitate your wellness program
when it's delivered by interactive video games, like Wii
Sports and Wii Fitness:
Students practice both
fitness and mentor roles, apply for work in an
interactive video game team. Trained students
will share time and talents with peers and the greater
community ? that's you! This GenXe3program can re-invent
the corporate/business partnerships in your community.
Interactive
fitness video games deliver increased success in cognitive
tasks like reading and math while simultaneously providing
rich fitness benefits. What works for school will
provide rich benefits for your employees. How does that
work?
